Figure 1 The Mechanism of MCJ Action in CD8 T Cells
Super complexes form between CI, CIII, and CIV of the ETC in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) and facilitate the transfer of electrons from reduced substrates produced by tricarboxylic acid (TCA) through CI, CIII, and CIV to O2 as the final acceptor and the transfer of H+ into the intermembrane space (IMS). The resulting chemiosmotic gradient results in the flow of H+ from the IMS through CV and the production of ATP from ADP +Pi. Mitochondrial ATP is hydrolyzed to yield energy for the active secretion of cytokines (e.g., IFN-γ) and the exocytosis of cytotoxic molecules from CD8 T cells. MCJ interferes with the formation of super complexes and so impairs ETC and the production of ATP by OXPHOS, resulting in decreased secretion of effector molecules and anti-viral immunity.
